1 c. water
1/2 c. water
1/8 tsp. salt
1 c. all-purpose flour
4 eggs
3 c. whipped cream, pudding, or ice cream
powdered sugar (optional)
In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt. Bring to boiling. Add flour all at once, stirring vigorously. Cook and stir until mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat. Cool for 10 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well with a wooden spoon after each addition. Drop 12 heaping tablespoons of dough onto a greased baking sheet. Bake in a 400 oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden. Transfer cream puffs to a wire rack; cool. Cut tops from puffs; remove soft dough from inside. Fill with whipped cream, pudding, or ice cream. Replace tops. If desired, sift powdered sugar over tops.
